Life after life

"What if you could live again and again, until you got it right? On a cold and snowy night in 1910, Ursula Todd is born to an English banker and his wife. She dies before she can draw her first breath. On that same cold and snowy night, Ursula Todd is born, lets out a lusty wail, and embarks upon a life that will be, to say the least, unusual. For as she grows, she also dies, repeatedly, in a variety of ways, while the young century marches on towards its second cataclysmic world war. Does Ursula's apparently infinite number of lives give her the power to save the world from its inevitable destiny? And if she can--will she?"--

  • "Que Ursula Todd muera a las pocas horas de nacer en una casa de campo inglesa a principios de 1910 y que, a la vez, el medico llegue a tiempo para salvarla son dos hechos perfectamente compatibles en Una y otra vez, una novela que ofrece siempre dos alternativas a su protagonista. Asi, Ursula tendrA varias oportunidades de cambiar su destino, el de su familia e incluso el de toda Europa. Y no se trata solo de vivir una nueva vida, sino de hacer algo con lo que la mayoria hemos soNado alguna vez: borrar los episodios del pasado que hablan mal de nosotros. Gracias a un perfecto dominio en la creaciOn de ambientes y personajes, Atkinson consigue varias novelas en una. TrAgica en ocasiones, divertida en otras pero siempre intrigante, la gran autora inglesa cuenta una historia y es como si contara cientos de ellas."

On that same cold and snowy night, Ursula Todd is born, lets out a lusty wail, and embarks upon a life that will be, to say the least, unusual. For as she grows, she also dies, repeatedly, in any number of ways. Ursula's world is in turmoil, facing the unspeakable evil of the two greatest wars in history. What power and force can one woman exert over the fate of civilization - if only she has the chance? ""

  • "En una noche fría y con nieve en 1910, Ursula Todd nace, el tercer hijo de un banquero acaudalado Inglés y su esposa. Ella muere antes de que pueda sacar su primer aliento. En esa misma noche fría y con nieve, Ursula Todd nace, deja escapar un gemido lujurioso, y se embarca en una vida que será, por decir lo menos, inusual. Porque como ella crece, ella también muere, en repetidas ocasiones, en cualquier número de maneras. El mundo de Ursula está en crisis, frente a la maldad indescriptible de los dos más grandes guerras de la historia. ¿Qué poder y la fuerza de una mujer puede ejercer sobre el destino de la civilización - aunque sólo ella tiene la oportunidad?"
